A stock’s Futures & Options (F&O) contracts enter a ban period when its open interest (OI) exceeds 95% of the market-wide position limit (MWPL). The ban is lifted only when the open interest drops below 80%. Traders dealing with indices are not affected by these security bans.

Here is a quick look at the stocks in the F&O (Futures & Options) ban list for today:

  • New in Ban: NIL
  • Still in Ban: Chambl Fertilizers (CHAMBLFERT), Gujarat Narmada Valley Fertilizers & Chemicals (GNFC), Granules India (GRANULES), Hindustan Copper (HINDCOPPER), IDFC First Bank (IDFCFIRSTB), Punjab National Bank (PNB), Manappuram Finance (MANAPPURAM), RBL Bank (RBLBANK), and Steel Authority of India (SAIL)
  • Out of Ban: Bandhan Bank (BANDHANBNK), Birlasoft (BSOFT), and Tata Chemicals (TATACHEM)

The F&O ban list is updated daily and includes stocks that have crossed 95% of the market-wide position limit, restricting them from further trading in the derivatives segment for the day.
